Sample Organization Data: Directory Information Tree View

The example shown in Figure A–3, like
the logical view shown in Figure A–1, contains
the following organizations:

VIS and ESG (provider organizations)

DEF, a shared organization subordinate to the VIS provider organization

SESTA, a full organization subordinate to the VIS provider organization

Nodes in the Sample Directory Information Tree

The nodes in the sample organization file (da.sample.data.ldif) are as follows:

ugldapbasedn - This parameter represents the
root suffix.

o=business - A node that contains all businesses
in the directory.

o=SharedDomainsRoot - A node needed to contain
the domains used by shared organizations.

In this Directory Information
Tree, shared organizations subordinate to different service provider organizations
can use the same shared domain. This can be done because both the provider organizations
have nodes under the SharedDomainsRoot node.

o=ESGDomainsRoot and o=VISDomainsRoot - These nodes contain any full organizations that are subordinate to the
ESG and VIS provider organizations.

Each provider organization that manages
full organizations must have a node at this level (under the root suffix).

Multiple full organizations, each with its own domain, can exist under ESGDomainsRoot or VISDomainsRoot.

o=siroe.com - The shared domain. It is used by
the shared organization, DEF.

o=VIS and o=ESG - These provider
organization nodes contain any shared organizations subordinate to the VIS and ESG
provider organizations.

For example, the shared organization, DEF, is
subordinate to the VIS provider organization.
